O THE BLOOD THAT FLOWED
O the crimson tide
Where the sinless saviour died
On the killing hill
See His hands and feet
Hear the painful cry
See the darkened sky
On the killing hill
Love without measure
Love without bounds
Love that lasts forever
On the killing hill
Where the will of God was met
Eternal justice sealed
And mercy was revealed
On the killing hill
David Gate
